She wished Waylen had expressed his feelings earlier, without the involvement of Mavis.

But she couldn't dwell on it anymore. Rena berated herself for feeling despicable, but her heart was in turmoil.

She tried to lower her head, appearing gentle.

Waylen's emotions overwhelmed him.

He couldn't resist kissing Rena against the thin partition.

Rena resisted, attempting to push him away, but her efforts were in vain.

In arush, she slapped him across the face.

The slap left both of them stunned.

Leaning against the door, Rena said with a hint of a nasal voice, "Waylen, do | need to make this clear? We can never be together again. It's impossible."

Was it amusing for her to go through a divorce?

Was it amusing for her to move out with her two children?

No, it wasn't amusing at all. It was something she had to do!

With red eyes, she pushed the door open and left.

Standing there, Waylen watched Rena's retreating figure, suddenly realizing that he might never be able to win her back, even if she still loved the Waylen who hadn't lost his memory...

Waylen didn't linger long and soon caught up with Rena.

A disagreement hung between them. They didn't speak to each other when they reached the ward, and even Vera could sense that they had quarreled.

Later in the afternoon, Waylen went to pick up Alexis.

When he mentioned picking up Alexis to Rena, she remained cold, leaving him crestfallen.

After he left, Vera said softly, "I think his attitude is obviously different from before.”

Rena was well aware of it.

Indeed, Waylen's fondness for her and his concern had grown. But she had lost confidence in their relationship and didn't want to wait any longer...

She even thought that being apart might bring them both relief.
